Abstract
Object tracking is one of the most important applications of WSNs, especially for military usage. Sensor nodes should collect information about intruders and sound alarms to military in good time. Previous protocols suffer from flooding based method or focus on tree-based approaches. We proposed a quorum based protocol that is suitable for multi-sink and multi object tracking applications. Simulation shows the efficiency of its performance over previous protocols.
